About Pookode Lake

Considered one of the top Wayanad Tourist Places to visit, the lake is definitely a vacationer’s paradise. Distanced at 13 kilometers from Kalpetta, Pookode Lake looks charming with its evergreen woods and sloppy verdant slopes. The whole view at the site is breath-taking. Covered with thick timber and trees, the lake is a nature freak’s ‘go-to’ destination, and also attracts avid photographers. The scenic walkway takes visitors around.

The Panamaram rivulet starts from Pookode Lake and is one of Kabini River’s main tributaries. The rivulet then flows down into the valley of Panamaram. A star attraction at this lake is its freshwater aquarium that houses several species of fish. It mainly draws kids from far and near. Apart from the aquarium, there is boating, a kid’s park and a Handicraft and Spices Emporium. It is one of the prime attraction in Wayanad tour package.
